Event Pick: Rare at Maymont

Sunday, Aug. 6

A highly publicized recent scientific study noted that we are currently in an ongoing sixth mass extinction as animal populations decline across the globe more quickly due mainly to us special humans. Future generations will most likely know a far less diverse and hospitable world, so why not take your kids to Maymont’s Robins Nature and Visitor Center on Sunday, Aug. 6, and get hands-on lessons about endangered species while you still can? 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. $3. maymont.org
